Thread regarding Verizon Communications Inc. layoffs

Is this the calm before the storm...

...or will union leadership continue to give away more of our livelihood and allow the on the job abuse to continue?

Whoa, what happened? Did I miss this storm? Are we out on strike!

Did we rip the company to pieces?

Oh! Nothing changed, no storm?

We'll let me know when it's time to fight, I'm in full kill mode.

Wow it's amazing that we once had the power to negotiate and protect our benefits from these greedy pigs. In the old days we wouldn't stand for this. Why do we pay for dues? We are without contract and protection but the locals get their money either way. Time calls to ask out stewards for answers. Enough is enough with this crap. The lack of updates and progress is killing me. It's time for our brothers and sisters to stick together and demand something be agreed to from the union we belong too. All we get it these updates saying we may go out, don't buy stuff, do overtime and quit loving your life. I want to spend time with my family period. This is why i am work. I don't want to be told that this may happen so grow a pair and do something if not shut up and let's get this contract sign.

2vty, you can't spell and you're sexist. Are you a millenial, an angry manager who lost their pension or an a$$ sucking fool that is energized by change?

My advice, save your breath, you're gonna need it when you get old? There's no storm, just a whole lot of hot air.

The only storm is shareholder value. Nothing else matters.

qol, it's easy to say keep your calm when you're not the one being forced to work 60,70 & 80 hour weeks for approximately 6 months now. I know the typical response might be to say, "enjoy all that extra money." The fact is that many of us who have lives outside of work, want to be able to enjoy time with our family and friends, not to mention, the entire work day is filled with non-stop harassment. Please understand that we are not asking for more, we are asking to retain what we currently have and Verizon is trying take even more off of us, despite the union conceding tens of millions of dollars in the previous contract that were not justifiable.

I think you should all keep your calm. Verizon has a way to be dismissive, act like nothing exists (ignorance) and hope you explode...so they can call u crazy and entitled. Hold your ground. Speak facts, you're not begging for a job, you're stating your value and dedication.

We need to change the signs and informational picket union leadership to do something now.
